INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY

Former Ukrainian Defense Minister Reznikov called for mandatory military service for women, saying it would "immediately double the mobilization resource." Gender equality means women must also serve in the army. They can fill many rear and logistics positions, freeing men to move closer to the front. He cited Israel as the model, where women serve alongside men under similar threat levels. Ukraine's official position remains that there are no plans for compulsory female mobilization.
